Big sis Ume is the cutest, actually. All you naysayers complaining about her not being as small anymore are fools. She's the most adorable big sis there could be.

Though technically, she'd really be her aunt. Aunty Ume doesn't sound quite as cute tho, lol.

Anyway, those parents should be put in a blender on high. Worthless.

I have heard of some criticism of our "Love and Low taxes" policy, but need I remind that every system has its flaws and no amount of safety nets can catch everyone. Which is why we trust in the Loving hearts of our citizens, who thanks to low taxation can afford charity.

On other unrelated news, as I was checking our quite limited constitution regarding re-election I discovered that our city is rather interesting inregard to term limits. One term, no duration.
That would explain a lot...

Are there no laws there about child neglect? It's insane that those parents would skate by with zero consequences. Now, I understand that it isn't really that kind of manga. But if you're going to introduce such an awful backstory, it should carry some real weight.

Those parents were so comically evil I have to question whether or not those events actually occurred.

Nevermind an unexpected baby, but booting out a small child old enough to have been on the family register for years? Shouldn't that make the news or cause more than a few issues?

:huh:

Considering what they've shown us,the series itself exists in strange time,no highly advanced tech,but tech that exists squarely the 1950s to 1990s bracket,so theorectically there should be modern laws.

At the same time,she basically ran from home,which is isolated-ish,all the way to Lucas' home,also isolated-ish.

The distance she ran notwithstanding,the only reason they aren't barging down the parents' door is simply due to their own choice.

Unless the next five chapters mention something,it's quite likely those parents won't receive any lawful action against them.

And the same can be said when it comes to family registers and the news,it's entirely possible this world,or at least the nation they're in,is simply a bunch of rural villages spread around the land.

At most,if anyone was around,would be rumours about the child having gone missing,but as Nagi has said just prior to the time skip,the couple themselves are quite likely ostracised locally,so no one else would even bat an eye regarding their child.

Speaking of child,we definitely gotta see how Haru has grown,along with the other characters.

you're applying real-world (sounds like) Japanese modern societal stuff to a setting that has fairytale/Nursery Rhyme characters and animal people. Given everything we've seen so far about the lack of established towns and settlements and the degree of technology, I think it's sadly much more believable (even if it's setting up Luca & Shizuku adopting a child) than you might be thinking.
